Ölü Bir Deniz

“You know, I actually don't like the sea here very much,” he said. “A very calm, dead sea. The water is also very warm. I am a Bosphorus child. I love the sea of the Bosphorus.
It whips people, even scares them. He doesn't like strangers either. It is necessary to know its currents well, otherwise it will take them away.”

Banker Yüksel and retired biology teacher Adnan Refik, with the awareness that they are now in their middle ages, meet in the dark days when they think about their lives, their marriage, their sense of happiness, freedom, and whether absolute freedom is possible. . They find themselves in a passionate love affair on the shores of a dead sea, in a holiday town that seems dead because it is out of season. A Dead Sea, which tells the story of two married but lonely people, who get to know each other and get to know themselves better, and which lasts only a week and is broken and destroyed by social pressures and responsibilities, promises its readers a questioning read, accompanied by competent psychological analyses.

“I read A Dead Sea as soon as it was published in 1983. A Dead Sea, which expresses the final search of a woman from a big city and a man from a small town in sexuality - and perhaps love - was a valuable work with its nuanced analysis from the individual to the social.
It remained almost without echo. Then it was transferred to the big screen; It is a production that causes Bener to be very sad...”

“A Dead Sea, a novel of a passionate love, is a life of two lonely people, far from self-interest. The novel of their love, as strong as a dream, as beautiful as a dream, hopeless, perhaps finite. Maybe hurtful... But what beauty is not finite? Aren't similar miracles, even if delayed, humanizing life?
